"Oh, I am enjoying our date, Harry, but if I seem nervous it may be because you're the only man I've spoken to since September who's over the age of fifteen."

Today, proud and accomplished the career woman re-enters the dating world, ready at last to meet the man of her dreams. . .

"And I never kiss in the first two seconds."

"Do you have any of those books that understand men?"

'He had bulging muscles and a wallet to match!'

Tasty.

"Teri tells me you're ostensibly straight.."

"Don't make eye contact. Don't make eye contact. Don't...."

"So, tell me, how many guys have you slept with?"

'Complements of the big smelly gentleman.'

"hmm....I'd like to tick her box."

"Does it occur to you that the only thing separating us is a basket of bar snacks? And a flimsy basket at that?"

"He's your type--gorgeous, successful, and totally unavailable."

'Nah! He's not my type.'

"Not on a first date! That's fine by me, I've been on lots of dates."

"I have two children from a previous economic cycle."

'Get lost. Can't you see I'm with someone?'

"Careful Nora. There's nothing worse than a bad oyster!"

Dorothy and the singles bar

"My mates at the showroom said that I should start dating again."

"Having a dog is great for meeting more dogs."

'There are plenty of fish in the sea and I just got myself some fresh bait!'

"I'm still in shock. He had such a trustworthy avatar."
